Description

Explore the profound political and social transformations of the Near and Middle East through its literary evolution. This Routledge Library Edition examines how modernization shaped writing styles and themes from 1850 to 1970. Originally published in 1991, this volume provides a detailed look at the development of modern literary sensibility across multiple languages, including Turkish, Arabic, Persian, and modern Hebrew. The text organizes this historical period into distinct phases, starting with the age of translation after 1850. During this time, regional elites began engaging with Western ideas and stylistic models. The book also covers the rise of romantic nationalism following the First World War, offering a clear view of how regional identity and literature changed over time. This is an essential resource for students and scholars interested in the history and linguistics of the Middle East.
